    Why can't they get this right?

    I really wanted to love this game. 2k basketball has been so close, in my opinion, to being the best sports simulation of any kind. But there are continuing problems that plague this series each and every year that defla... Read Full Review

    NBA 2k8. An innovative though good game. Despite a few graphically problems, this game simulates the NBA better than other NBA games. Also it has some features, like the Sprite Slam Dunk and The Association, that makes a... Read Full Review

    This game isn't that good.

    I thought this game would be a great basketball game but found out it was just a good game. This game has better gameplay than NBA Live 08. Like when you do a lay up and get fouled your player actually has a chance of ma... Read Full Review

    Same old, Same old...

    NBA 2k8 is just another PS2 basketball game... Same stuff... nothing special. They even got lazier in some categories... like announcing players pre-game. Now it's only the home team during the loading screen. Not that i... Read Full Review

    One of the best-looking basketball games, and the depth is incredible.

    This game really focuses on little details like how players bounce the ball before shooting the free-throw shot, cheerleaders, mascots (although they are not exactly like the real ones), bench players, crowd (everyone ha... Read Full Review

    Still keeping my attention after a lot of months.

    This is way better than nba live 08, I bought them both. 2K8 is more realistic and the gameplay is way better. Although I think the shot stick isn't necessary, maybe they should use it like they did in nba live 08. But I... Read Full Review
